The material used inside the mosque is very expensive and amazing. The tiles, lights, fanoos and the interior work is so amazing. By passing this way and after some passing security checks i entered in the mosque. When i entered in the mosque, my eyes was just opened and i was looking everywhere. The interior and the structure of mosque is beautiful. Now i'm sharing some pics now watch it ourselve :)

It's views represents the fusion of traditional Islamic architecture with Pakistani culture.The carpet has been custom-made and imported from Turkey, there are over 50 luminous Persian chandeliers, creating a vibrant Islamic ambiance.
The structure comprises of 4 minarets, each standing tall at 165 ft. and a Grand Dome in the center, which is surrounded by 20 smaller domes. The most fascinating feature about this masterpiece is that the exterior consists of 4 million, 2.5 inch handmade Multani tiles made from special Multanimitti and hand placed by the craftsmen. Placing these tiles alone took 4 years to complete. The total capacity of this magnificent piece of Islamic architecture is 70,000 making it the worlds 7th Largest mosque. It has an indoor capacity of 25,000, labeling it Pakistan’s Largest Mosque. There are dedicated praying areas for women, a school and an Islamic Art Gallery.
